May be method of this kind will help you:

public static IEnumerable FindChildren(this DependencyObject source)
                                             where T : DependencyObject
{
  if (source != null)
  {
    var childs = GetChildObjects(source);
    foreach (DependencyObject child in childs)
    {
      //analyze if children match the requested type
      if (child != null && child is T)
      {
        yield return (T) child;
      }

      //recurse tree
      foreach (T descendant in FindChildren(child))
      {
        yield return descendant;
      }
    }
  }
}
